Based on some of the comments it seems I wasn't clear in the video. The new rod bearings spun again. The repair for me only lasted a week and the engine started knocking again. I will install a new engine soon. I just haven't had the time to do it. This will be my first time removing and installing an engine.
@@RichLifeStories doing my d17 engine on Gen 7 civic and I’m 0.10-0.15mm out of round. Trying to sand the sides that are sticking out for the new undersized bearings with 0.25mm and checking with plastigauge once it’s sanded down. Crankshaft needs to come out and be machined professionally at a shop from what I’ve seen but I’m trying to do it in my own without taking it out. Hopefully it works

May have been a good idea to add assembly lube when installing the rod bearings. Did you replace the top crank bearing halves, or just the bottom?
Got a 96 this helped me so much with an issue i was having putting the rods back on
I'm happy to hear that! I wasn't for sure how much this video would help.
do you think they spun again because you didnt check clearances? oil clearance, out of round, runout and taper?
Yes that is exactly what I think caused it.

Good job 👍
Why drop a new engine in and not really fix it this time?
do you mean the engine lasted 1 week or the knocking went away for a wee
The new rod bearings spun again So the repair for me only lasted a week. I will install a new engine soon. I just haven't had the time to do it.
What exactly lasted a week?

@@RichLifeStories thank you
@@JGcynicDC2 No problem.
Not wrong, just a different technique
I appreciate it 🙏.
